I go by the nick Doc Del. I live in Kula, Maui, Hawaii. I am 64 years old, I've been married for 41 years. I am a Vietnam veteran being a platoon medic with the 1/5th Cav., 1st Cav Division. I am also disabled. In 1997, I suffered a ruptured cerebral aneurysm which was repaired via brain surgery but left me with some physical deficits. Lately I was diagnosed with three other brain aneurysms which will be dealt with this coming Monday. I also had a heart attack and had a double bypass in 2004.
In the early/mid-sixties I had a couple Harley's, a '46 knucklehead and a '48 panhead until I went into the service late'67. After that I got married and although I dreamed of getting another bike, it was not to be.
For the last year I've been planning on getting me a Softail Heritage and fitting it with a 41" Mystery Designs straight axle trike conversion kit along with the ammenities that will allow me to ride with my handicaps. But I am waiting to be done with the aneurysms repair before investing any money. Seeing that that time is close I decided to join this group and enlist some feedback if and when needed.
I heard there was a great group of folks on this forum and I am pleased and proud to belong. I look forward to meeting you in the future.
With much Aloha,
Doc Del
